From the Editor - July 2022

Compiling these lists in the midst of a heatwave made it a little tough for the Horn Book editors to focus on back-to-school — but as the big box stores never fail to remind us: it’s right around the corner! Our annual BTS issue of Notes features a cool thirty-plus recommendations of books, grouped by age and genre, focused on school, back-to-school, new experiences, and more. See also Guide/Reviews Database searches for School (with subsections by age range) and the Back-to-School tag on Hbook.com. And be on the lookout for even more school-set recommendations in the September/October issue of the Horn Book Magazine (Merci Suárez, we see you!). Subscribe today.

From the July 2022 issue of Notes from the Horn Book.
